Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Business Secretary Vince Cable has said he does not understand why people need to earn £1m per year.

"I've asked one or two of the more sympathetic bankers to explain it to me," the Liberal Democrat said in an interview with the Observer newspaper.

He said their response was "because others get it so I should, too".

"That is a ludicrous mindset. What on earth do these people think they are doing?" said Mr Cable, who recently criticised bonuses paid out by RBS.


Very good choice for a Business Secretary with those views , I don't think

The serious Polks show UKIP coming third in the EU elections.

Here are previous polls on EU

Your one looks like an outlier anomaly.

The polls show that the main parties are going to get a bloody nose.

A few ideas spring to mind about the Malaysian aircraft is that it could be that the plane has landed in a remote location and is going to be used for an attack on a high-rise building somewhere or an atomic powerstation somewhere after being refuelled....possible...or is this a massive cover-up story because of a collision between a secret aircraft /shuttle of some sort ?.....or perhaps there was a cockpit fight between the pilots/passengers and the kidnappers resulting in a crash !?.....all possibles......did anybody on the aircraft try to use a mobile phone or did the kidnappers confiscate them ?....what a mystery !....

R F

!?.....all possibles......

There are possibles that are impossible, and impossibles that are possible but we don't know what is possible or impossible .......

The suggested target is the Petronas Towers in Malaysia. The pilot seems to be a supporter of an extreme Malaysian polital party.

Another poll showing UKIP doing well........ Looks like the momentum is behind them and the Tories sweating on just 30%.

16% is NO MPs. Even 30% will not get them an MP.

I think before there is a change of the English flag, there should be a debate and referendum in Wales and N.I. and as to whether there is any wish to be included in the flag.

Also, if the answer is yes, then they have to consider whether they will allow a Red Dragon at the centre of the flag and how big it should be.

Of course that will need another referendum or two.
